Full Tilt Poker Ambassador Captures Second Women’s Event Title
On the last day of August, Event #2 €330 Women’s Event at the EPT Barcelona saw Croatian Full Tilt Poker Ambassador Hana Soljan top a 86-player field to capture the €6,880 first-place prize. The win marked the second Women’s Event title for Soljan, who studied Entrepreneurial Management at the University of Applied Scienes, after she won the EPT Prague version back in 2010 after beating out 25 others for the €3,750 prize.
Interestingly, Soljan used to be a houseguest on the Croatian version of Big Brother, though she was evicted after 48 days.
"I don't think there's any advantage to being a woman at the table," Soljan previously told the PokerStars Blog. "I prefer to play against men though as I think I can read them better. But I don't think men underestimate woman, they just don't like to lose to a woman!"
